Count me in as someone that wanted not to use headset but couldn't face talking into a mic. I looked at shotgun mics but it got too expensive quickly and seemed a risk as it wasn't common. Anyone tried?
- ZoomZoomZoom 6y agoYou probably don't want a shotgun mic, as a regular condenser set at a distance of 30-70cm will work just fine in most situations. When talking about condenser microphones for voice recording most people think about large-diaphragm condenser type, but actually it's absolutely possible to get great results with a small-diaphragm condenser with a tighter polar pattern ("pencil"). You can always play with the angles to get the mic closer to you. Usually, it means miking from slightly below and shooting from a higher point. It all depends on your particular situation so if you have further questions contact me or drop by #mixing:matrix.org
- u678u 6y agoThanks. Most of the small condensers seemed to be designed for instruments which is why I thought shotgun would be better. I really could live without a 12 inch long mic so I'll take a look.
